A benchmark of how quickly a development team produces value has no relevance whatsoever to whether a language can, or should, be more aggressive at function inlining. These two notions are orthogonal. The benchmark detailed doesn't necessarily make a bulletproof case for the usefulness of more inlining in the Go compiler, as it's only a single benchmark, but for its intended purpose it at least shines a light on one aspect of the Go compiler the team may wish to evaluate more extensively in the future.
